How do I set up a per-kilometer rule?
Navigate to Settings > Payroll Rules > Extra Rules and configure a new rule with these settings:
Rule Name (Code): Enter a name ending with @ and no spaces (e.g., Drive@). This acts as the trigger code.
Group: Select the employee group this rule applies to.
Rate: Enter the dollar amount paid per kilometer (e.g., 0.85 for 85c/km).
Apply after: 0
Timesheet shift exist: NA
Multiplier: 0
Classification: Allowance
How do employees log their kilometers?
Add the code and the number of kilometers directly into the timesheet notes for that shift using the format Code@KM.
Example: To pay an employee for 50 kilometers, type Drive@50 into their shift notes. Microkeeper will automatically multiply 50 by your preset rate and add the total to their payslip.
